Should it be broken down by blind level? Type of tournament? M?
This is an area that people interested in tournaments could definitely help us out.
Maybe soon...

I changed the bg on the hud slightly, but I can't see where I can change the font. What file is the HUD font in? Anyone know?

This is an ongoing program being developed as we speak... I hope...If you are looking for a package that just instantly installs itself, it's not ready yet. So, put another shrimp on the bar-b, open a cold can of beer, and it will eventually be complete...
That is if the developers aren't sipping and barbecueing as well.

For the vast majority of purposes, and people, alpha software is useless, anyway. What we've got so far, is a mostly functional and useful HUD, pretty much everything else is in a state ranging from "not even considered" to "semi functional but probably not to be trusted".
Also, the internals of the more functional pieces are all being ripped out and replaced as well, as it is very difficult to expand upon what we already have with the pieces that we already have.
Also, none of us are professionals in python or guis or gtk. I know s0rrow's development computer has been out for a while, i'm not sure where eratos has been, and i've been pretty much unable to implement anything new, so i sit and try to improve what we already have as much as i can.

ekdikeo has played with this a lot more than what I have, i think he added some hooks in config so they could be adjusted.

Yep, others can so its less useless to them.
I've said this a few times in this thread - anyone willing to step up and provide an improved windows installer is more than welcome, and will receive whatever assistance is needed from at least a couple of devs.

Well, it's not like there is no way to install the programme. The point is it takes a bit longer and is a tad more involved. But if you follow the installation instructions provided on the SourceForge page it will not be too difficult to install.
But if you want to take that extra effort depends very much on what you want to gain from this tracker. If all you want is a freebie Holdem tracker then there might be better alternatives. But FPDB also supports Stud games and is a good alternative to PT Stud (a programme I personally don't like). So it all depends on what you want from it.

The "hooks" you are speaking of, are they in the configuration.py file? I did see a couple of places to show font size. Changed two and it didn't "appear" to make a difference. Otherwise, not sure which actual file you are talking about (idiot here) when you talk about "gtk/pango". Sounds like a resort, Pango Pango, I might want to lay on the beach at.

HUD_config.xml was what i mean't
I'm not sure if they do the job advertised, or what choice of fonts you actually have fwiw.

Okay, it worked.. change the fonts that is...
Here's my Hud config file with the changes. (the redout is my screen name, they would enter their name for both screen name and hh location on their computer. It was slightly different to what Sorrow posted, by I've (and others) made changes over the months. I just added it after the "PokerStars.exe>" obviously before the ">". Even a dummy like me figured that out. I also changed the bg color slightly to blend into my scheme, and the opacity slightly from .75 to .8
And here is what it looks like. I changed the font to a common one most Windows users have, and it's very small, which is what I wanted. This pic is the font "Vrinda" 8 pt and it might be too small for some, not me Remember, this is a zoomed in shot. I did try 9 pt in this same Vrinda font and it did take the bigger font, so it works like Sorrow said it would.... of course
I tried several fonts, they all worked. Now I need to figure out where to change the box/row/col size to adjust to the smaller fonts... next???
Most Windows users can either open MS Office and see what fonts are available in the drop down menu.... or they are probably located like mine in the directory:
C:\Program Files\Windows\Fonts
Now I need to get some rest before I fall asleep at the keyboard.

no idea on Justin, need more info.
dog,
the boxes auto size themselves to approximately 1 or 2 pixels larger than the amount of space that they need to cover. If you have a reasonably variable width field, such as player name, configured, then the boxes will be different sizes depending on the amount of data in them. It works like an HTML Table, where each row is as big as the data that it needs to fit.. You can resize them by holding down ctrl and then mouse-dragging it.. but that doesn't stick.
